Request for drivers for MT6735P SoC

Hi!
Looking for kernel sources for MT6735P chipset which powers Lenovo C2
Vibe {,Power} phones. Found none. Is it going to be published?
Thanks in advance.

Valid hint.
However, their contact form on corporate site has a wall of "enter
serial id of device". Currently I don't own a unit of subj, and
apparently not really going to buy one because of such attitude of them.
But maybe somebody reading this has contact with Lenovo dev guys and
could forward my inquiry to them?

Hi Andrey

It looks like the following link meets your need:

I'm not Lenovo guy. Good Luck. :-)

Thanks a lot Mars!

Seems with this archive it's possible even to mainline some kernel stuff :)
